I'm a big poetry-reader. My favorite is more recent poets, like
Denise Levertov, Scott Cairns and Sarah Getty. I also like Frost
and Dickinson and Eliot and Cummings. And Shakespeare. And
Sidney. When I feel like trying hard.

here's something:
We shall not cease from exploration
And the end of all our exploring
Will be to arrive where we started
And know the place for the first time.
- T. S. Eliot (Little Gidding)
sort of applies to your previous comments. I like it. I like
the whole Little Gidding, but there's so much of it, it's hard to
comprehend.
Have a lovely weekend, everyone,
Bethany
